Franklin County waits on a nearly six million state low interest loan for paving 34 miles of roads while considering selling the county annex. Commissioner Taylor said a local group has shown interest, with legality and office space implications to be reviewed.

County re issues tax abatements for Wal Mart
Franklin County commissioners renewed two 10 year 100 percent property tax exemptions for Wal Mart Distribution Center east of Ottawa. The center, the county’s largest employer with about 1200 workers, ends in 2006 and will begin paying property taxes in 2007. Stark Truss, last year’s exemption recipient, may return if a supply deal with a Kansas City builder is signed.
